Layers of Patina Advanced Technique Workshop at Camas Antiques

 

I have had such a blast lately playing around with the Artisan Enhancements products!

Last month I had the opportunity to go to a special training for Chalk Paint® stockists where I gained loads of information about the whole Artisan line. 

 

 

A few of the products such as Crackle Tex and Pearl Plaster, I had already been using on some of my furniture makeovers, but the others were fairly new to me and the ideas I gathered at the training really broadened my painting horizons!    
 

 

 These eco-friendly, low VOC artistic mediums were designed to work in harmony with Chalk Paint® and the finishes people are creating with them are incredibly inspiring!

 

 

I could hardly wait to share this wonderful line of products, which we now carry at Camas Antiques with my painting friends!  I have put together a fun advanced technique workshop to introduce the following products and some ideas for using them: 

 

Artisan Enhancements Fine Stone

Artisan Enhancements Crackle Tex

Artisan Enhancements Scumble

Artisan Enhancements Clear Topcoat

Artisan Enhancements Transfer Gel

 

In this workshop we will create a beautiful work of art on a 16x20 stretched canvas, all the while learning several unique products and techniques that while fantastic on their own, are just stunning when applied in layers.  The cost is $90 and includes all materials as well as light refreshments. This workshop is designed for those who have previously taken the Introduction to Chalk Paint® workshop and are ready to take their paint finishes to a new level!

  Layers of Patina Advanced Technique Workshop Dates:

 

Monday, August 18th 7pm-10pm

Monday, September 22nd 7pm-10pm

 

 

Preregistration is required as seating is limited.  You can either register by email and I will send you a Paypal invoice, or you stop by Camas Antiques and register in the store!

 

If neither of these dates work for you but you would love to attend this workshop, would you do me a favor and let me know! I would also love to hear what techniques you are interested in learning for future workshops!

Best Wishes and Happy Painting!

When Pickin' Friends Know What You Love!

 

Last night I gave my little booth at Camas Antiques a much needed overhaul.  Many of my dealer friends were there working away in their own booths and chit chatting with one another!  Truth be told, often times there is more chit chatting than working!  But we're having fun and getting things done, so it's all good!  One sweet friend stopped by my booth to say hello and mentioned that she had found an adorable pink baby scale that reminded her of me.  Moments later I spotted said scale out of the corner of my eye, sitting  near the back door of the shop!

 

It was love at first sight!  This friend knows me all too well!

 

 



She sold it to me for the price she paid for it...super generous friend that she is!

 

 

And so, I have a fun new accessory in my pink kitchen!  It looks perfect on the island but will display beautifully on top of the cupboards too!  I had the best lighting for photos on the breakfast nook table today, so I set up my little photo shoot there.

 

 

I just couldn't wait to share my new pink treasure with you!

 

Have a wonderful weekend!

 

Best Wishes and Blessings,

Amanda
